2024 RTIH Innovation Awards open for entries in March, winners announced at London event during November

We’re pleased to announce that our 2024 retail technology innovation awards will open for entries in March.

Stay tuned for some major updates over the coming weeks, including a move to a bigger venue after our 2023 awards ceremony in central London was a sell out.

2023

On Wednesday, 29th November, we announced the winning submissions for the 2023 RTIH Innovation Awards, sponsored by PMC, FreedomPay, Worldpay from FIS, CADS, 3D Cloud by Marxent, Goodays, and Vista Technology Support.

Our winners were revealed during an event which took place at the Barbican Centre in central London and included a drinks reception in the stunning Conservatory, followed by a Christmas themed three course meal, and awards presentation in the Garden Room.

Scott Thompson, Founder and Editor, RTIH, saud: “Since we launched the awards in 2019, they have gone from strength to strength and holding them at the Barbican Centre, a much loved, internationally acclaimed venue, is going to be a tough one to top.”

“Thanks to all those who entered the 2023 awards, many of whom were at our event last night. We received a record number of submissions this year and many fantastic examples of the continued resilience and dynamism of the retail space during hugely challenging times.”

“Congratulations to our 2023 winners and highly commended submissions.”

“To quote a member of our judging panel: “What a year, these awards are really going from strength to strength. There were many categories in there that were so difficult to call. Very worthy entries and winners.”
